Q - How do I install / fasten the roof sheets?

A - We, as do other sheeting manufacturers, advise the use of a Tec Screw with a 'flange or wing'. The purpose of this is to oversize the hole to allow of expansion and contractions due to temperature fluctuations.

Q - Are the roof sheets 'Hail Proof'?
